    2021-Brass-Audition-Packet.Pdf

    Dear Brass Line Candidate, Thank you for your interest in the 7th Regiment Drum and Bugle Corps! This packet will serve as your primary resource for video auditions. Read everything in this booklet carefully and prepare all of the required materials to the best of your ability. VISUAL AUDITION MATERIALS Basics of Marching Technique: Our technique program is “straight leg” marching; that is, we ​ ​ strive for the longest line between our hip and ankle bone at all times. Allowing the leg to bend at the knee shortens that line. The following are basic definitions for those who are unfamiliar with our technique. ● We stand in first position. With your heels together you will turn your feet outward 45 ​ ​ degrees. This turnout will come from the hips. Make sure your knees are in line with your middle toe. ● Horn Carriage: When at playing position (or carry) create a wide triangle with your ​ ​ forearms and horn. ● Forward March: articulate each beat with the back of your heel as you move forward and ​ ​ generate the longest possible leg line on the crossing counts. ● Backwards March: articulate each beat with the platform of your foot keeping your heel ​ low to the ground as you move backward and generate the longest possible leg line on the crossing counts. ● Crossing Counts: The point at which your ankle bones are right next to each other while ​ marching. This should happen on the ‘& count’ when marching in a duple (4/4) meter. ● 5 Points of Alignment: generate uniform posture by keeping your ears (1), shoulders (2), ​ hips (3), and knees (4) stacked vertically from your ankle bones (5).

  • Brass Teacherõs Guide

    Teacher’s Guide Brass ® by Robert W.Getchell, Ph. D. Foreword This manual includes only the information most pertinent to the techniques of teaching and playing the instruments of the brass family. Its principal objective is to be of practical help to the instrumental teacher whose major instrument is not brass. In addition, the contents have purposely been arranged to make the manual serve as a basic text for brass technique courses at the college level. The manual should also help the brass player to understand the technical possibilities and limitations of his instrument. But since it does not pretend to be an exhaustive study, it should be supplemented in this last purpose by additional explanation from the instructor or additional reading by the student. General Characteristics of all Brass Instruments Of the many wind instruments, those comprising the brass family are perhaps the most closely interrelated as regards principles of tone production, embouchure, and acoustical characteristics. A discussion of the characteristics common to all brass instruments should be helpful in clarifying certain points concerning the individual instruments of the brass family to be discussed later. TONE PRODUCTION. The principle of tone production in brass instruments is the lip-reed principle, peculiar to instruments of the brass family, and characterized by the vibration of the lip or lips which sets the sound waves in motion. One might describe the lip or lips as the generator, the tubing of the instrument as the resonator, and the bell of the instrument as the amplifier. EMBOUCHURE. It is imperative that prospective brass players be carefully selected, as perhaps the most important measure of success or failure in a brass player, musicianship notwithstanding, is the degree of flexibility and muscular texture in his lips.

    OpenStax-CNX module: m12650 1 Baritones and Euphoniums* Catherine Schmidt-Jones This work is produced by OpenStax-CNX and licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution License 1.0 1 Introduction Baritones and euphoniums are aerophones in the brass family. They are closely related instruments, both fairly large and with a medium-low range. They are generally not considered orchestral instruments, but are an important part of the Western band tradition. 2 The Instruments Like other instruments in the brass family, baritones and euphoniums are played by buzzing the lips against a cup mouthpiece. The air then moves through the brass tubing and leaves through the bell at the other end of the instrument. The valves change the playing length of the instrument, making it possible to play several harmonic series that together allow the instrument to play any chromatic note in its range. For more on how brass instruments work, please see Wind Instruments: Some Basics, Standing Waves and Wind Instruments, and Harmonic Series.) Baritones and euphoniums are valved brass instruments that have a range similar to the slide trombone, higher than a tuba and about an octave below the trumpet. The valved tenor-range brass instruments are a slightly confusing group of instruments. They are usually held upright, with the bell pointing either straight up or up-and-forward, but they may also be shaped like a very large trumpet, held horizontally with the bell pointing forward. They may have three, four, or sometimes even ve valves. Baritone and euphonium are recognized in Britain as being two dierent instruments, but in the U.S.

However, if you do not have online access, we want to be sure that students still receive the same information. Please read over the following lesson and complete the activities below with your child as best you can. Students using the online version can choose between the online “Exit Ticket,” the paper activities provided, or both. LESSON REVIEW: In the first lesson, we talked about three different music classes you might find down the road when you go to middle school: Choir, Band and String Orchestra. We showed you how instruments are grouped into four different families. The groups are called "families" because all the instruments in that group share some things in common. Today, we'd like to take a closer look at the brass family. If you have a chance to choose an instrument in middle school, you'll definitely need to know about the brass instruments. We want you to make an informed decision! So, we want you to know... How do the brass instruments make their sounds? How are they different from each other? Which brass instrument do you like the best? THE BRASS FAMILY: The Brass Family consists of 4 main instruments and are considered the muscle of the band.

    Musical Instruments _______________________________________________More About Music The String Family The string family of instruments includes stringed instruments that can make sounds using one of two methods. Method 1: The sound is produced by moving a bow across the strings. The violin, viola, cello, and string bass produce sound in this way. Bowed Strings Method 2: The sound is produced by plucking the strings. The guitar, banjo, and harp are some of the stringed instruments that produce sound in this way. Plucked Strings ©Teacher Created Resources, Inc. 103 #492 Focus on Composers Musical Instruments _______________________________________________More About Music The Keyboard Family Keyboards are instruments mat use a keyboard in some way to make sound. Some keyboard instruments make their sound when a key is pressed down and moves a small device called a plectrum that plucks the string. Harpsichords and spinets produce sound in this way. Electronic organs and electric pianos are widely used in many of the music styles of today. Electronic keyboard instruments produce a wide variety of sounds and special effects. keyboard harpsichord One of the most popular instruments makes its sound when a key is pressed down and a soft “hammer” hits the string or strings.

    Soprano Cornet

    SOPRANO CORNET: THE HIDDEN GEM OF THE TRUMPET FAMILY by YANBIN CHEN (Under the Direction of Brandon Craswell) ABSTRACT The E-flat soprano cornet has served an indispensable role in the British brass band; it is commonly considered to be “the hottest seat in the band.”1 Compared to its popularity in Britain and Europe, the soprano cornet is not as familiar to players in North America or other parts of world. This document aims to offer young players who are interested in playing the soprano cornet in a brass band a more complete view of the instrument through the research of its historical roots, its artistic role in the brass band, important solo repertoire, famous players, approach to the instrument, and equipment choices. The existing written material regarding the soprano cornet is relatively limited in comparison to other instruments in the trumpet family. Research for this document largely relies on established online resources, as well as journals, books about the history of the brass band, and questionnaires completed by famous soprano cornet players, prestigious brass band conductors, and composers. 1 Joseph Parisi, Personal Communication, Email with Yanbin Chen, April 15, 2019. In light of the increased interest in the brass band in North America, especially at the collegiate level, I hope this project will encourage more players to appreciate and experience this hidden gem of the trumpet family.

    Course Content - Brass Instruments Introduction to Brass Instruments • Instruments are considered to belong in the Brass family if they make their sounds because of vibrations from the mouth and a mouthpiece. • Brass instruments are not necessarily made of brass. For example, the Digeridoo is a brass instrument made of wood. • The shape of the tube in a brass instrument is called a bore. The size and shape of the bore creates the sound of the instrument. • There are two shapes of bores: Cylindrical and Conical. • A Cylindrical bore stays the same width from beginning to end. A Conical bore gets wider as it progresses. • The very end of a brass instrument is called the Bell. • The two brass families are the Valved and Slide families. The only instrument in the slide family is the Trombone. • Valves on brass instruments are used to change the note by changing the size or length of the tube. Large and Medium Sized Brass Instruments • The largest instrument in the brass family is the Tuba. It plays the lowest notes. • The Sousaphone was invented to replace the Tuba in a marching band. It is designed to be carried. • Sousaphones are often made of lightweight fiberglass. • One of the oldest brass instruments is the Trombone. The slide of the trombone controls the notes instead of valves. • The French horn is the only brass instrument that is played left-handed. Music in Life Lesson: The Music in Life lesson is a moment to engage in active listening. The Music in Life lesson song for this course is "Flight of the Bumblebee” by Canadian Brass.

    The Composer's Guide to the Tuba

    THE COMPOSER’S GUIDE TO THE TUBA: CREATING A NEW RESOURCE ON THE CAPABILITIES OF THE TUBA FAMILY Aaron Michael Hynds A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS August 2019 Committee: David Saltzman, Advisor Marco Nardone Graduate Faculty Representative Mikel Kuehn Andrew Pelletier © 2019 Aaron Michael Hynds All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT David Saltzman, Advisor The solo repertoire of the tuba and euphonium has grown exponentially since the middle of the 20th century, due in large part to the pioneering work of several artist-performers on those instruments. These performers sought out and collaborated directly with composers, helping to produce works that sensibly and musically used the tuba and euphonium. However, not every composer who wishes to write for the tuba and euphonium has access to world-class tubists and euphonists, and the body of available literature concerning the capabilities of the tuba family is both small in number and lacking in comprehensiveness. This document seeks to remedy this situation by producing a comprehensive and accessible guide on the capabilities of the tuba family. An analysis of the currently-available materials concerning the tuba family will give direction on the structure and content of this new guide, as will the dissemination of a survey to the North American composition community. The end result, the Composer’s Guide to the Tuba, is a practical, accessible, and composer-centric guide to the modern capabilities of the tuba family of instruments. iv To Sara and Dad, who both kept me going with their never-ending love.
